It's hard to believe that Keegan is 4 years old already. I can't believe how fast time goes. He is such a sweet, fun boy. He loves his big brother and wants to be just like Landon, and do everything that Landon does. He still loves Sesame Street but also likes Paw Patrol. He loves reading books, especially the Artscow books I have made of our family, birthdays, holidays, and trips we have taken. He has been coloring and drawing a lot lately, and he loves to practice writing his letters. Keegan LOVES going to school every Tuesday and Thursday morning and wishes he went more often. He also loves playing outside any chance he gets. He plays so well on his own and can entertain himself for hours. When he plays with Landon, they either play really well together or are constantly fighting!! It depends on the day :) He loves to dance and have dance parties! Keegan is still super cuddly and I love that!! He is also still super picky and barely eats anything, which I don't love. Keegan is a very caring boy and we are so lucky to have him. He makes us laugh daily and brings so much joy to our lives!
For his birthday this year, we decided to go to Great Wolf Lodge. It is an indoor water park, and the boys love it. It is in Sandusky, so about 45 minutes away. Matt's family came the day before and then all of us went to Great Wolf Lodge together on Keegan's birthday. We got there around 2 in the afternoon and went straight to the water park. We came back to the room at dinner time and picked up some pizza. Then, we went to the lobby for a dance party. The boys were worn out though, so we didn't stay long. We came back to the room and Keegan opened his presents, and we sang to him and had some cake. Keegan was sick a few days before his birthday with the stomach flu, and I got it in the middle of the night at Great Wolf Lodge. Everyone else got up and went back to the water park for a few hours before we checked out and headed home.
Since we were celebrating a birthday, both boys got special birthday wolf ears to wear and also free ice cream from the cafe.

While Rod and Matt were getting pizza, and while Landon, Cara and I were decorating the room for Keegan's birthday, Keegan went with Dixie to do some face painting in the lobby. He decided to get his arm painted instead!
He got a snowman!
